court room was thronged and many
ONE were present, but there was a
noticeable diminution in the glare OF
red ribbons and flowers. displayed.
Frederick Herting, the fist witness
called, testified:
He went into the saloon in the rear of
which Most was making his speech, and
attracted by curiosity, went into the
meeting held there. Most did not use
the violent language charged against
him. He had never seen Most before and
was not an anarchist, but might yet be-
come one.
Herman Strelitz. q reporter formerly
on the Leader, and now on the Volks
Zeltung; testified:

socialist and did not believe God bother

Gnstaye Stephan and Siegfriad
Rosepzweig testified that they heard
Most's speech and that it did not SON
tain the incendiary language alleged.
The latter said:
He did not know whether he was an
anarchist or not, and not exactly know
what anarchy was, although he had
been studying the subieob for eight
years. Drevfus, the reporter who testl-
ed against Most left the meeting q
quarter of an hour before it ended.
Judge Oowing announced that he had
received q threatening letter. 1t was

Lincoln, Neb,, Nov. 2S-Mayor Sawyer
and ton of the twelve members OF the
council, of this CITY, are now inoarcer-
ated in the Douglas comfy Jail, at Omaha
by order OF Judge Brewer. of the United
States court. they haYing refused TO pay
the fines imposed by the court for con-
tempt, aggiegating $4,000. The history
of the case which led up to this cendi-
tion of affairs is about as follows: Some
time in July last charges were
preferred against Polioe Judge Persone,
by a number OF citizens. sileg-
ing malfeasance in office and
inappropriate Of funds paid into his
hands as fineS for violation Of city ordi-
nances. The council decided to investi-
gate the affairs of the police Judge, bat
had. not proceeded far when they found
that before doing so they would have 20
adopt q set Of rules to govern the exam
nation, as the city was working under q
new charter. This was done ard the
investigation proceeded and resulted in
o DETERMINATIONS oil the part of the coun-
Gil to oust the police judge. After the
council had decided upon this action,
| bnt before the final vote declaring the
the office vacant had been taken, the po-
lice judge applied TO Judge Brewer of
the federal court, tor IN Injunction,
alleging that he was being tried for an
alleged offense by an ex post faoto law.
a temporary Injunction was served on
the c%ouncil, but that body, believing that
the case had bsen wantonly misrepfe-
sented to the federal court, for the
purpose of gaining time, decided 10 dis
regard the injunction, and %thereupon
took final action, removing Police Judge
Parsons, and confirming the mayors
appointment OF u successor to the office.
The council wss then Cited to appea
befo.e Judge Brewer to answer to the
charge of contempt. AT this hearing the
court held that although ii
might not have jurisdiction
in the case originally brought, yet it was
contempt for the council to disregard the
temporary Injunction, and fined them
accordingly in sums ranging from $50 to
$500 each. The council decided TO test
the case in the highest court in the land
and in accordance therein refused to pay
the fines and went to Jail. Their legal
representative has already left for Wash.
ington to institute habeas corpus pro-
eeedings in the United States supreme
court.

Electric Light in warfare.

Washington, Nov. 2S-The expert
ments with the incandescent electric
light which have been made at the tor
pedo station at Newport have developed
a novel use for the lamps, and one that
is said to promise to be of great value In
naval warfare. With lamps OF about 100
candle power fastened on the ends OF
poles submerged in the sea to q depth of
twenty feet the water is SO illuminated
that objects in it can be distinguished
within q radius at 100 feet. There is little
or no glare from the submerged light to
betray the boat using the spars. II
is believed that by this meaus a boat
might counsermine an enemy's field OF
submarine mines by cutting their cables
or sweeping them to one side. 1t ie
probable chat torpedo launches will be
equipped with these lights in the future,
